DWL-2100AP ptp Bridge vs. ClientAP
the 2100ap via ClientAP or ptpBridge to the root AP (the di-624). Why would anyone choose one over the other? This does not seem to be made clear. Also, on the 2100ap side, would another router be required for multiple ethernet devices? I tried to replace the router with a switch and everything was going super slow and timing out. Is it possible for multiple devices to use the 2100ap without nat? (i.e. di-624 - - -> 2100ap ----> swtitch ----> devices) Thanks, Max tallgr***@gmail.com wrote in
